McAuley v. York Mining Co.
6 Cal. 80 | Cal. | 1856
Mr. Chief Justice Murray concurred.
By the 15th sec. of the Act of 1853, “ to provide for the formation of Corporations," the liability of the stockholder continues for “ all debts contracted during the time that he was a stockholder."
The witnesses were therefore incompetent, by reason of their interest, and the objection to their evidence should have been sustained.
The judgment is reversed and the cause remanded.
